Cop under a road sign

So this cop is sitting behind a sign on the Freeway waiting for speeders. Then a brown Toyota goes by at 22 MPH.
The cop, being the brilliant sort, decides that 22 MPH is just as much as a road hazard as if the car was speeding, so he gives chase.

When he catches up with the car, he pulls over 5 old ladies who are all white as ghosts, and visibly shaken.
He asks the driver how fast she thought she was going. She says "Exactly 22 MPH!"
The cop says yes, she was going exactly 22 MPH., but being that far under the speed limit constitutes a road hazard.

She, still as shaky as the rest of them and white as a sheet, says "There was a sign a mile back, said 22 on it, big as life!"
A light goes on in the copper's brain, as he realizes;
"That was the sign saying you are on Route 22...the speed limit is actually 65!
And why are you all shaking and white?"


The lady driving says..Oh, we just came from Route 119
:mrgreen:

It seems I've run into these ladies almost everytime I am driving.
